Expedition Restarts! Driving to South Carolina

All loaded up and ready to leave Maine.

The time has finally arrived.  I'm recovered and raring to paddle again.

Paddle Day 63: Start of the ICW, Close Encounter with LPG Tanker, Fierce Winds, & Best Tale of Water Ahead

Way too close to an LPG tanker!

I am exhausted after today's tough and exciting paddle.

Paddle Day 44: Beaten to a pulp by the winds and currents and arrive to media and super long distance paddling host

There were many times this day I was ready to give up.

Paddle Day 23: What a difference a day makes!

Terns at sea.

What looked so challenging yesterday in the higher winds, was a breeze today in the lighter tail wind, with only one spot of challenge.

Another Expedition about to reach it's final goal!

Eric Larsen and Ryan Waters are skiing pulling their sleds, even swimming at times, for an unsupported expedition from Ellesmere Island to the North Pole.  You can follow the final push to the pole by the Last North Expedition at:

They are using the Delorme inReach satellite communication system to automatically generate these maps.  We will do the same for the Kayak For Safe Passage Kids expedition.
